rapot

Rapot, sometimes spelled rapor, is a formal school document that records a student's academic performance and conduct. Used primarily in Indonesia and Malaysia, it is issued by schools at the end of a term or academic year and serves as an official record of a student's progress. The rapot may be required for promotion to the next grade, as part of admission to programs or schools, and for applications for scholarships or transfers.

A rapot typically lists each subject with a corresponding grade or mark, an overall average, and a final assessment or predicate describing overall achievement. It commonly includes an attendance record (days present, absent, and late) and teacher comments that note strengths, areas for improvement, and recommendations. Some versions also summarize extracurricular activities and achievements.

Variations exist by country and school. In Indonesian and Malaysian education, the rapot may be presented in different formats and may use numeric scores, letter grades, or a combination. The terms rapot and rapor are often used interchangeably in everyday language, while official documents may have a fixed format defined by the ministry or school district.

Access and use: Parents, guardians, and students typically receive copies of the rapot, with copies retained by the school. The document is a historical record of the student's schooling and can influence future education options and funding decisions.
